Using it on my own server since… Ages ☺️ Can only recommend it. Even though google’s results are often… Weird up to completely unhelpful.

I’m a windows-fan since… Errr… The first one. I’m a pro also with tons of win-certificates for everything. Even i started to effing hate w11. It started nice with the hdr and such, but the startmenu alone made me go nuts. Bought the one from stardock, didn’t satisfy me, made my own. If they don’t rudder back with their obnoxious ui in w12, I’m probably leaving and only dual booting for optimal gaming. I’m not troubled by the whole consumer annoyances coz I’m in a local domain with a lot of group-policies. Also global ad-/telemetry-block and firewall.

Check out GhostSpectre. Or just the LTSC versions. Or the enterprise-versions where you can tell it what you want or not.

Worry not. According to tradition, win 12 will be pretty solid 😉

Yaaayyy gunnnnsss! Freedom!

And what is it with my attitude? To have a strong opinion?

I remember the times where we didn’t have a tiny computer with us all day to be reachable. And if I’d be lonely because i don’t give a rats ass about WA, fb and the likes, that’d be indeed lonely but not due to that

This is sadly the exact reason it will stay like this. People can’t reach me because i don’t use WhatsApp? Well bad luck. Use a better app or just don’t. I can’t reach them because they only use WA? What a bummer but so be it.

As long as people install WhatsCrapp because some distant aunt still uses it for the xmas-greetings, it will continue to be #1.

That’s right. It’s a billion-bucks-industry against less than a handful people. Yet it’s still not uncrackable. There’s just nearly noone left to do it anymore so in the end they might win. And the legit customers loose even more, as we have to endure this ugly as fuck drm.

There is no such thing as an uncrackable game. It is “just” variable levels of hard-to-crack. And some peopl are not willing or able to put in so much work to do it.

Back in the early days we did it for competition/sports and maybe “fame” . Not for monetary reasons. Most of us never knew financial problems due to employers fighting over us 😁

Can’t speak for the modern crews. But it’s still unlikely. Other crews would find out, call out and their reputation would be done for. Not worth it as there are other options to get some bucks out of it

Oh sorry. It sounded like you were 😊

Easy. Every day you spend working, or working on working, or working on government-mandated stuff, you don’t spend reflecting on your life. You won’t start to question what you’re doing, you won’t organize, you won’t revolt. Especially you muricans with nearly no day-offs.

Dude. Not one ukrainian is living in said group-housing. I thought you refered to social housing by the gov. But those in the refugee-camps (why so polite, it’s literally what they are) either leave or can stay and occupy another apt.

Yeah i like your logic. An immigrant being here for a generation stops being one. Okay, whatever. It’s still a +1 that was not supposed to be here.

But i get it, we taught you long enough these values of diversity and being liberal and open, and now we reap the profits. I’m game.

Not dodging. Well if the sole reason is relocating to cities, then the outskirts or far-away-places should be cheap as shit right? Guess what, it’s not different. Prices went up, demand grew, space is still the same.

I don’t understand why you totally not see a problem with 15% of the population being immigrants that weren’t here before. How can they not be a major part of the problem? And yes, they compete for gov-run grooup-housing. But so do the “natives”.

Anyhow, be it as it may, i don’t really care (beside profiting from whatever the real reaso is). The next generation will have to deal with it. I didn’t add kids to this world, i have no stake in the future.

There are past migrants too that procreate way more than we do. But why should i even argue? It’s simple logic. Even if everyone of us had 1 child. Including past immigrants and not counting them, every coming immigrant is a +1 we didn’t want nor need. Doesn’t matter how well they integrate or not. It’s just population = population +1

I have never heard so much e. G. ukranian in my life. Those hundreds of thousands need room to live.

But if you want to believe in your theory of how additional people don’t matter, sure. Go ahed. I don’t mind. It’s people like you that helped bring us here. Thanks. I hate work anyway 😁

Nope, there isn’t. Without a good reason it’s forbidden. Sadly so, would drive prices even higher. And the “actual statistic” are obvious: Population nearly doubled. Fact. Still the same space and only a fraction of what would be needed have been built new. Fact. Less of something available with risen demand for it? Prices rise. Simple as that.

And even IF it would be as you said, wouldn’t change a thing about immigrants. They’re on top of the problem ypu describe. Can’t speak for the US though.

Yes, but also cynically.

Only part of it. Everyone that forces you into a corner with nowhere else to go. Endure unfair rent, endure shitty jobs with shitty pay. Boomers and part of my generation were the last (here at least, can’t judge other countries) where appartments searched for tenants and jobs searched for people. We managed to turn it around. If you now place an ad for a job or an apt, you’re drowning in applications in mere minutes. Literally. No matter how shitty either of which is. Housing-market especially. It’s like dating for ugly and poor men. Probably even worse.

That’s the dream of landlords and employers. And mass-immigration made it possible. e.G. my home-city went from 350.000 people to >600.000 in just a generation. Nearly same amount of apts and jobs. It shows :-)

Also, guess what. I can be part of the problem and still dislike it, even though i highly profit from it. I didn’t make the rules.
